Here’s a list of five things that give me the creeps. See if you agree, or add something to the list .

1. Really Tall Old People.

When old people are really tall it makes them so much harder to ignore. They become a giant walking reminder of our painful, inevitable future.

2. Grown Men with Little Hands

I suffer from this one myself. There is something about a tiny baby doll hand at the end of a thick hairy arm that make me think of a poorly replicated M.C. Esher drawing.

3. Fat guys who play guitar.

I know in your mind you’re a rock god shred ’n away on your bitching axe, but to everyone else you’re a giant man delicately tickling what looks more like a flying v ukulele.

4. Classic Cartoon Characters with New Voices

Why does Kermit sound like Kermit’s cousin? Because Kermit’s suppose to be dead, so is Bugs Bunny, and Mickey Mouse. Instead they live on, like ungodly clones waiting to turn evil and kill the people that once loved them.

5. French Rap

The rap music is suppose to be tough, and the French language is suppose to be romantic. Together they are a de-clawed cat trying to disembowel your forearm with it’s harmless baby soft footsies; scary when you really thing about the intention, but cute and ticklish in the execution.

As many of you know I like to paint obnoxiously cute pictures of my tiny dog Carol. Well, I'm sad to say that this is the very last one I'm going to do...

THIS YEAR!

I drew the sketch for this painting of the baby lounging in the sunshine on hotel stationary while staying at the Hotel Amarano in Burbank during a work trip last week.

I had the canvas in my "man" bag, and an hour and a half to kill. It was either work on a painting or watch a third hour of "Dog the Bounty Hunter". I'm happy with the final product, but I'm sad to say I'll never get that extra hour of "Dog the Bounty Hunter" back.

Michele and I are trying to quickly come up with this years Christmas card. In the meantime I'll post some of the ones we've done in the past. This was last years card. It's good and creepy. I'll post our NEW one tomorrow just in time for Christmas Eve!

Michele and I are trying to quickly come up with this years Christmas card. In the meantime I'll post some of the ones we've done in the past. This card was done the year we got our dog Carol. The joke was that we'd all be walleyed like she is, unfortunately people that didn't know us just thought we were a blind couple.

Michele and I are trying to quickly come up with this years Christmas card. In the meantime I'll post some of the ones we've done in the past. This 2004 card is the very first Christmas card Michele and I took together. What a lovely couple... of assholes.

Every Saturday I work on my film "Tracy". I've been working on it for 5 years, and I'm desperately trying to finish it up by the start of the new year. Today I'm very disappointed in myself for getting distracted and not working on it at all. Instead I made this...
